Solve Climbing Highlights 2016 - South Platte, CO

Jan 23, 2017

The south Platte region just outside Denver has hosted a huge amount of climbing for decades, along with being a recreation paradise to so many other venues so close to a major city.

We've been developing boulders around the Buffalo Creek area for almost four years now, with enough to have captured a small amount of classics, to be enjoyed by all once we legitimately document our scavenging of hillsides. We should, undoubtedly, be so appreciative of our playgrounds in National Forest, BLM and Access Fund bought land as it would be a boulderless world without them.

Special thanks to all those who were willing to hang off ropes and scrub lichen and lose rock to establish these gardens for us all to grow. Notable thanks to Fritz Mercer for originally showing us the potential, Adam Healy, Luke Cova, Jon Roberts and several others who helped develop hundreds of boulders over several mountains including Little Scraggy Peaks, The Castle, Foxton Road areas and several others. Cheers!
